Children are naturally lively and active and do not want to be restrained. If you let your baby sit at the piano and strictly require him to play step by step, most babies will be impatient and will often end in an anticlimactic manner, disappointing their parents. Trying to use Orff music to guide your baby to understand music may be very effective. Because Orff music is very suitable for children's characteristics and focuses on giving full play to children's initiative. 1. Cultivate your baby's interest in music. Orff music has the characteristics of self-entertainment, which attracts children to participate and allows children to understand music while playing. It is not to learn music for the sake of learning music, but to let children learn music while still playing music. At an age when you don’t understand what music is, you start practicing music in the field. For example, the teacher teaches a song: Climb, crawl, crawl, crawl, climb to the top of the head, crawl, crawl, crawl, crawl, crawl to the bottom of the feet. The teacher sings the first two sentences from low to high, and the last two from high to low. The action is to sit on the floor, bend the knees and put the soles of the feet flat on the ground, and make crawling movements with the hands from under the feet to follow the singing. When singing When it reaches the top of the head, the hands just reach the top of the head. When singing the next two lines, the hands climb from the top of the head to the feet. This method of singing and performing movements at the same time allows children to understand high notes and low notes using body movements. In the teaching, Orff instruments are also used. Orff instruments are relatively easy to operate, such as drums, xylophones, castanets, etc. These instruments do not emphasize too many skills. As long as the baby is inspired by the teacher, the baby can tap rhythmically and play music, making it easy for the baby to Like music. 2. Cultivate the baby's concentration and coordination ability. During class, the baby's ears need to listen, his eyes need to see, his mouth needs to learn to sing, and he also needs to cooperate with various movements, mobilizing all the baby's organs to participate in the performance of music, thus Make the baby concentrate and learn very quickly. At the same time, it also exercises the coordination ability of various organs. 3. Cultivate your baby's hearing and creativity. Babies aged 0-3 years old are a critical period for hearing development. During this period, letting the baby listen to a variety of sounds and rhythms will help the development of hearing. Because babies have less social experience, the development of creativity is not yet obvious. The 4-year-old baby is a critical period for the development of creativity. At this time, if the characteristics of the baby at this period are fully utilized, the baby's creativity can be developed. For example, the teacher inspires the baby: The teacher sings about climbing to the top of the head. Can the children tell where to climb? Some children said it climbed on the nose, some said it was on the neck, and some said it was on the buttocks. The teacher encouraged all their answers and led the babies to sing it again. The teacher can further enlighten the baby: It can be crawling, what else can it be? Some children say fly, some say drift, and some say go. In short, let the children use their brains to make up their own lyrics. 4. Cultivate the baby's emotions. Because this activity is easy and enjoyable, the baby can learn it as soon as possible and does not bring pressure to the baby. Therefore, the baby is full of emotions and excited, which is conducive to the baby to express his emotions through this way. 5. Cultivate your baby's other artistic talents. In the process of learning Orff, you can play musical instruments, dance, and sometimes play a piece of music to let pictures represent the music. For example, when you hear the sound of gurgling water, your baby may draw pictures. A winding line. When the baby hears the sound of the waves, he may draw a line that rises and falls to represent the waves. This cultivates the baby's ability to understand other art forms. In short, Orff music not only allows children to learn music in a form that they love to hear and see, but also develops children's multi-faceted abilities and taps their potential through music. Mother talks about her feelings Ms. Guo, baby is 3 and a half years old When my daughter was 2 and a half years old, I asked her to learn piano, but her daughter was disobedient and didn’t pay attention to the teacher’s lectures at all. After going there twice, I would never go again. Later, I enrolled him in an Orff music class, and my daughter liked it very much. The musical instruments here are very simple but have beautiful timbres, such as castanets, which are red in color and shaped like shells. My daughter can produce musical rhythms by pinching them. When learning certain music, you can also dance with it, so I feel that I learned a lot in this class. Ms. Sun, the baby is 3 years old. I attended Orff’s class with my baby. That time the teacher asked the mothers to sit on the floor and hold the baby. Then the teacher played a piece of music and inspired the mother and baby: This is the sound of waves, small waves. The mother holds the baby and gently rocks it from side to side. A big wave comes, the boat capsizes, and the mother and baby fall to the left or to the left. right. Both my children and I find it very interesting. I believe that through this kind of course, children will gradually understand music.
